Keep task status visible where execution happens
A changed due date or task state should not require a separate announcement. Notis makes it visible in GitHub.
Trigger
Task State Changed
Triggers when a task's status or details change in Box. This trigger monitors a specific Box task and fires when changes are detected in key fields like status, due date, message, or completion state.
Action
Add labels to an issue
Adds labels (provided in the request body) to a repository issue; labels that do not already exist are created.
Why this helps
Founders maintain task status in Box while the execution team works from outdated GitHub context.
- Reduces status reconciliation
- Highlights changed deadlines
- Protects attention from unnecessary follow-ups
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Box and GitHub to Notis once.
- 2Create an automation with: “When this Box task changes status, due date, message, or completion state, add the appropriate status label to the related GitHub item.”
- 3Select Task State Changed and choose a channel for run reports.
- 4Change one test task and verify the GitHub label.
Questions about this workflow
Can due-date changes trigger a different label?
Yes. Describe the rule for deadline changes in the plain-language instruction.
Does this replace Box task management?
No. It keeps GitHub aware of meaningful changes while Box remains the source task context.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Box to GitHub. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Box triggers
GitHub actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Accept a repository invitation
Accepts a pending repository invitation that has been issued to the authenticated user.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
List repositories starred by the authenticated user
Deprecated: lists repositories starred by the authenticated user, including star creation timestamps; use 'list repositories starred by the authenticated user' instead.
Collaboration Details Changed
Triggers when a collaboration's details change (e.g., role, status, expiration). This trigger monitors a specific collaboration and detects when any meaningful field changes, such as role, status, expiration date, access type, or acknowledgment status.
List stargazers
Deprecated: lists users who have starred a repository; use `list stargazers` instead.
Comment Changed
Triggers when a comment's content or details change in Box. This trigger monitors a specific Box comment and detects when any meaningful field changes, such as message text edits, tagged message changes, or modification timestamp updates.
Star a repository for the authenticated user
Deprecated: stars a repository for the authenticated user; use `star a repository for the authenticated user` instead.
New File Comment Added
Triggers when a new comment is added to a file in Box. This trigger monitors a specific Box file and fires when new comments are detected.
Add email for auth user
Adds one or more email addresses (which will be initially unverified) to the authenticated user's github account; use this to associate new emails, noting an email verified for another account will error, while an existing email for the current user is accepted.
File Metadata Changed
Triggers when a file's metadata or properties change in Box. This trigger monitors a specific Box file and fires when changes are detected in key fields like name, description, size, modification time, parent folder, or status.
Add app access restrictions
Replaces github app access restrictions for an existing protected branch; requires a json array of app slugs in the request body, where apps must be installed and have 'contents' write permissions.
File Shared Link Changed
Triggers when a file's shared link settings change in Box. This trigger monitors a specific Box file's shared link and fires when changes are detected in the shared link configuration, such as access level, permissions, password protection, expiration date, or vanity URL.
Add a repository collaborator
Adds a github user as a repository collaborator, or updates their permission if already a collaborator; `permission` applies to organization-owned repositories (personal ones default to 'push' and ignore this field), and an invitation may be created or permissions updated directly.
New File Version Uploaded
Triggers when a new file version is uploaded to a file in Box. This trigger monitors a specific Box file and fires when new versions are detected.
Add a repository to an app installation
Adds a repository to a github app installation, granting the app access; requires authenticated user to have admin rights for the repository and access to the installation.
